The carpal tunnel is real bro
but back in the days you spammed everything on CD you didnt really have one
Oh for outlaw you just send everything on CD
Unless it's like a really high key and you're in charge of taking out like an abom or something and it's about to come up in like 30 seconds, it's just baffling
Also crazy the guy only hit KB seven times on trash
I need to be better about just sending
Damn I mean the way I use KB in trash is see which mob is most likely to live it or just down a priority mob that might 1 shot the group
Yeah, that's the ideal situation, but sometimes, just have to do what whispyr said moments ago and just accelerate the opener and fire
I think about it this way, if I nuke the mob that chain casts like crazy and making it die faster and that way the run is smoother
Yeah
for deathmark you just slam on prio and even if it dies with 8s left kingsbane well its better that saving it for next key
Yep
and kingsbane you have a free one between 2 deathmarks same its free might as well use it
Yeah
If you have a DH or a BM then you will always be bottom Dps but a least you nuked the mob that was troublesome and that’s way really matters
if you play sudden demise you can impress everyone with a 3M execute i think thats worth everything
your dps is fucked but your group is like wtf
Yeah idk why people have the mindset of Dps higher mean better player, you can have a BM do stupid damage but die a lot or not kick anything and only target non deadly mobs
Because people are stupid sometimes
If you have it in you to make the run smoother and better for your party then I believe that’s the real mindset
All the time
It’s kinda why people bring Aug to the party lol 🤣
Probably better to say "some people are stupid" rather than "people are stupid sometimes"
Even tho they should delete Aug
Aug is the coziest safety blanket ever
Yeah but it also makes the brain ded hunter more brain ded
I dunno. It's not even an aug thing. Just a player thing
having aug feels like the key is 3 levels below
what it is
aug in 24 you feel like youre doing weeky
Like just because you have an aug doesn't magically let you do 200k more DPS or survive shadow bolt volleys. You still have to press buttons
Yeah true but if I feel like having a Aug makes the other dps go wild with not paying attention to stuff and only focusing on dps
if ppl are bad they're bad ofc
True lol
Like I ran a 23 BRH last night with an aug evoker and a dev evoker. Tank does big pulls, which is fine. However, if it's just me doing like 1 mil dps and the dev evoker doing like 250k on like the first hallway, it won't matter what an aug evoker brings because that trash is stay alive for a while and we'll all just die to bleed casts
It's not, the dev evoker never hit dragonfire
its proc dependant ?
Nah, it's a two minute CD that they just never hit
oh by hit you mean use
Yeah
Yeah
Aug can help with some stuff, but the other two DPS actually still have to do damage for there to be an actual effect
ofc
aug is roughly a 7-10% damage loss in 5 man content
but also like. dungeons are hard because they one shot you with avoidable damge
so why not bring the lizard that makes that happen 1-2 key levels higher
and pay the damage tax
also, you have a dev evoker doing 250k damage. which is very bad. but if you didn't bring the aug you might have also had a boomkin doing 250k damage
then you're extra fucked

I dunno, boomies can pump
so can devs
Requires they push the big red “pump” button
yeah if you have an animal youre fucked evoc or not
but like if you bring an aug then you only need to fine ONE other dps with a brain
instead of 2
I mean, the key was fucked. Shit was taking too long for the size of the pulls we were doing. C'est la vie
Hi all wondering if sin rogue is still worth it in keys around 20 to 24s with out a priest for pi
My healer is swapping to druid and I thought maybe sub or outlaw would be better since we have a druid paly dh firemage
nah you're chilling
pi is not a big deal on packs i feel like
its good but you can chill without
pi loses a lot of value if you aren't able to use it as a kingsbane steriod with deathmark
and typically in keys if you're hitting something with deathmark and kingsbane
that mfer dying with or without pi
Yeah that's all we used it for kingd bane death mark windows
so not only are you capped on energy most of the time cause aoe dots
but you're also just not getting value on the kingsbane
like on sustained 5 target here
assa looks good
but it's also getting full value from everything
I can confirm that even everbloom abominations
in +27s
this week
don't survive you KB
your
if your target dies even 4 seconds before the end of your kb

well your DM one at least
Uh huh
Why not just play assa
On what boss
nymue
I wouldn’t sweat it
Sub probably better but like if you don’t wanna it’s not gonna be that much of a problem
It’s like 5% better not 50
yeah ofc
yall ever get so bored
im a bit bored of assa also i think
you go and reclear mage tower?
I don’t think I’ve ever been this bored in my life
Same
i legit think sin is just aids on that fighht, cuz like u end up holding kb for 15 seconds to send on first ad and then have to hold dm for 15 to send it wth 3rd kb on boss, but then u get to send another kb before boss phases (i think) and have 0 damage for the ad, and if u hold then its desynced again
idk man subs like so much cleaner
imo
but obv im biased
What
It’s just kb boss kb add kb boss kb add kb boss
You have it for every intermission and every boss phase
im probably then turbo cooked, cuz i legit remember getting 4th degree aids playing sin on prog on neemo, but that was like over a month ago so maybe I cnat remember
yeah probably then, i switched to sub week 2 of tier so it was just week 1 sin degening
im almost 24, getting old, the memorys not with me anymore
its joever
you have to delay your cds by like 15s
for adds
but it doesnt feel that bad yeah sin is fine
^ yeah thast wht i rememberd too
im just bored + i just want to play sub to top details cause after like 20 try this fight becomes boring for melee
only thing to look at is details i feel like once you got the muscle memory for lasers XD
sub has its own issue LOL this was the first ads damage on our last reclear, and uh, both subs are going to the same tree cuz wft
and uh the ad may or may not have died in like 7 seconds
and we had to run to the other side cuz the other ad was at like 75% when ours died
also subs knida weird cuz i go middle 2nd set of ads, but i would have to sit on blades for like 30 seconds if i wanna cd that ad, so i usually cd boss and have nothing for the ad, but then our uhdk has cds so she carries it hehe
thats funny
oh you hold blades ? on lorrgs io ive seen ppl just blading on 1m
im almost 26
like before adds
be quiet child
we still have a few years to master outlaw according to jpc 
no outlaw for you. joever
:|
I know…
I always think I want to give it a shot but deep down I know my wrists wouldn’t hold up
nah i tried outlaw a few days ago for fun, that spec sucks. its just adhd spam. i felt like i was on 18 coffees just slamming shit
so unfun
Sometimes I actually wanna try sub this patch but my brain might be too smooth
idk i feel like this is the most fun ive had playing any spec in wow (i started end of SL season 4 so not tha tlong ago but yea...)
sub just feels so incredibly fun and rewarding
takes a while to get a hang of it in keys specially but once u do man its a journey
also u can wait a few more days, some no dust cooks are being made right now lol
Arcane didn’t seem that hard it just seemed like muscle memory but I wasn’t willing to put in the effort
Pretty sure they have cast sequence macros for your burn anyways
true
but i learned without
and well it took me time too
but sub is burning my brain
u can but its not really needed. its honestly not that complicated
its like sub but without the ability to actually contorl cd timers
u take that back rn

hey guys, quesiton, if i do keys around 20-23, should i go for crimson tempest or the ST build?
ty 🙂
i played arterial shock until about 25/26 range then played cleave until 27s and am now getting forced onto outlaw 
and even in tyrannical you run this in 24 25 ?
i swaped to cleave from 22 but id love to play this
!up
yeah i think around 24/25 is where you started to notice the boss damage abit
also you just kinda don't need the extra AoE power in most groups
you're gonna have a DH or something kinda killing everything
and even with cleave you're just more focused on getting KB up and running quickly. still does good AoE in CDs
and better boss / prio damage which is kind of all that matters rn

BASED AND REAL
!dagger
What is this, btw 
When playing dtb in keys, do you all take off crippling on sanguine weeks? I had 2 different tanks malding at me yesterday cause they “can’t kite mobs out of sanguine when they’re perma slowed”
yea I do personally. Makes things rough especially when you get a nice shiv in there for 90% slow. basically rooting them in there
I guess, idk. I mean like i tank a bunch and ive never once been annoyed by slows. It’s the random roots from frost i didnt like
In fact slows can help u kite a big guy away from dying lil guys cause they’re moving different speeda
You can't take crippling off
Without losing a lot of dam
It's either run a build without DTB or lose lethal dose
Or play sub
Imo if tank asks you to take off and you don't wanna go sub, do the AP shock build
Honestly if you were tryharding keys sub is the play cause they can run improved wound poison for basically gree
Crippling counts for LD? Damn didn’t know
Yup
Fuck them tanks, then
Its only 1 LD stack, its not gonna absolutely grief your damage
2 during DM? No deal
Like I said if you keep wanna play sin and your tank cares a lot just use AP shock build
It's probably more overall dam anyway
You just lose 7-8% boss dam
Not a big deal
Or just ignore em
Honestly I've been doing sin keys this week and tempted to go wound poison for a lot more dmg loss
But at that point I should just go sub
Wound poison is less than half the dmg or less of amp/instant
But it's less of a deal for sub where it's only 1% of their dam
Sanguine healing can be very high, reducing it by half is more damage (like 70m) vs the poison dmg (like 20m) based on my logged keys
Most keys I did sanguine was between 100-150m healing
It doesnt duplicate your utility poisons does it? It only says lethal ones
But tooltips are known to be silly geese sometimes so maybe
So I simmed the nick of time daggers against my crafted ones same ilvl and I dropped 20k dps, does timestrike not sim?
for 20k drop you either lost 2/4 set or wrong talents
i think i may have simmed them 6ilvls lower nopw that i lopok at it, running it again see if its better
wow typing is hard
Is assa easier then sub and out law or is that untrue and how is it easier if so ?
You’re dropping your BSL for it
Put BSL on something else and see if it’s still a dps loss
I also don’t understand why you have one blue silken lining and a toxified patch that’s doing nothing
They don’t. You would need one of the boots
so are they canceling each other out?
Your blue silken lining on your dagger is getting unequipped when your sim the nick’s
So you’re losing an embellishment there
That’s the dps loss
i fixed the sim it helps a lot
thanks i didnt realize i was doing that ill get the boots asap
You could also just do blue silken lining on your ring and belt or different crafted pieces
ill do it on the ring
ooh ok thanks!
Is signet brand worth it in M+ or would embersoul be better?
those 2 trinkets shouldnt be competing for the same slot
but also signet brand is bad in m+
your default m+ setup should be branch + pips. you can switch out the branch for an embersoul if you don't want to mess with picking up orbs
If you can be bothered to use some annoying tech it can be good in certain dungeons
If you keep the stacks maxed throughout the entire dungeon its a very good trinket
But you cant do that in stuff like dawn
If you're just constantly hitting things do you not lose stacks?
stacks drop in like
what 8 seconds or something?
you can bring in like toys or external items to keey yourself bonking something
but realistically in a pug
you're gonna have downtime
What tech? Hitting critters on the way?
Or is there some usable toy stuff? Does the critter hand cannon still work?
But consider the following…that mob bathing in sanguine will now DEFINITELY live the full duration of Deathmark
cursed sanguine build
try it at your own risk
if the tank is good sanguine shouldnt be more than 1-2 min slow overall
if the tank is bad, its 2 min slow on every pull
when do you ashes in DM i forgot
macro ashes with kingsbane
!wa
Assassination Weakauras/Plater profiles:
Whispyr's Afenar Edit
Luxthos's Group
LE's Group
LE's Profile (lots of one-off weakauras)
Devlin's Group
Ceverion's Plater
Whispyr's Plater
Pooling Practice Tool
3 garrotes, ruptures fok crimson
then spatter, if they live long enough you can use kb without dm
if it's first pull and ur lusting that pack you should be sending cooldowns yeah
1st pull with lust you send dm kb into a prio target, preferably a target nobody else focuses, hard to do in pugs
like 1st bear in dht he survives even focused by all
but those mobs in brh are different, you solo a caster
the big guys that spin in Fall usually dont die fast either
but they might spin during ur CDs so
you dont focus those spinners, you focus chronomancer
at your own risk
its like 4-5 of them depending on pull
anyways, 2 ways to look at it. if you expect things to die before you get any value from CDs, like in lower keys, or 18s youre blasting with geared guildies, you can play shock (AP, demise, no DTB), and full DoT, shiv when they get low and save CDs for the next pull or the boss.
or if youre playing a DTB build, you can do a really quick opener
like gar rup gar snd
and then start bursting on a prio target
and use SD to spread bleeds
while in CDs
in 18s you can press shit on cd and still time it 
Got the Bandolier from cache, how is it?
its good for outlaw
Figures
its okay in AoE, we prefer other stuff though
Well my other trinkets are a Pip's badge and a 418
pip's is very good
your other trinket really needs to be a stat on-use (Ashes, Branch, mirror for M+ only).
Yeah, about to hit up LFR

Prolly a dumb question..but is it Amp and Deadly or do we use Instant? Ive been away from Rogue since S2 of Shadowlands. Trying to catch up with everything 🙂
Amp > deadly > instant > wound
If you talent into a poison
Probably should use it
New to ass, is it recommended to macro dance to bane?
Is it worth to take atrophic in higher keys this week
can smone send a very good pve build for sin
yes most average rogues do that
bout the same as taking wound posin for sanguine
wowhead is up to date thanks to whysper
Scroll up like 10 messages
did a mythic+ and my key dint get a lvl up?
Wound is a dps loss I’m tryna have my dps not die
3% dr not going to help on the one shots, use feint
on high keys i assume
just spam feint when those mechanics bout to come out and hope its not on you
dont you take both with the capstone talent?
With Dragon Tempered Blades you use Amp and deadly poison, unless you don't have amp in which case you'll use instant
it lets us do 3 posions?
4 poisons
Crippling
i read that talent so wrong thanks guys
how do inow if my mythic key is higher lvl cause i did a mythic 5 now and says it lvl 2??
Your own key only goes up if youre running your own key
If you run somebody elses key your key stays the same
bsl or shadowflame for m+?
and how i run my own key is create lobby for myself?
can anyone help me how i make deathmark witherbark macro?
#showtooltip
/cast Deathmark
/use 13
Or, 14 instead of 13 depending on where you equip it.
Hello, is toxic boots and patch good for sin?
Yes
Good ty
Crafting it for my outlaw and going to use it for sin for raidding
Can't do 1939 apm with outlaw for 3+ min fights
if i max my key will it be in every dungeon?
if im simming to see what stats to put on the ring craft, should i do patchwerk, single target, etc? idk if im doing it right because haste is simming the highest for me
Haste is fine
We like haste
Also Patchwerk
Also, doesn't really matter
Our stats are extremely close in value
!stats
Haste/mast was highest for me
There are no "recommended stat levels" or "breakpoint of X stat" or "required" amount of any stats. This is an outdated way to think about stats and simply is not relevant to the spec. If you're looking for a quick recommendation: Agi >> Mast = Crit = Haste > VersatilityIt's always more accurate to simulate your own character, as stat procs like Witherbark's Branch and Wafting Devotion can often de-value the stat in question. Stats are not a rigid construct, their values change constantly in relation to each other depending on your character.
If the robot says you do it, you go for it
im only at 27% crit
Doesn't matter, robot accounts for that
also, for keys like 20+ how much vers are you guys running? do you have specific vers gear? or is it not needed til like 25+
yea i just switched off cheat death
I'm running like 10% vers
dang ok
I don't understand the question
I forgot to take elusiveness for a 23 earlier and I didn’t love that
like how do i get the highest level in my mythic key?
are you talking about for the weekly vault?
me?
yees
no i mean my keystone how do i upgrade it
By playing the key
by timing your current keystone
And you get +1-3 levels on it depending how fast you complete it
i did a mythic+ 5 and it still lvl 2
was it your key
nope
guess not
i need to create my own party?
ur key goes up and changes when its ur key you run
if you want to upgrade YOUR key
you have to play YOUR key
Or you get a big key from vault if you do a weekly this week
and open vault next week
do i need to upgrade it or can play others?
go on group finder, premade groups, dungeons and press start a group then list
yha i get that but will i get better gear if i join a lvl 10+ and mine still lvl 2?
yes the gear comes from the key you run not the one in ur bag
haste+ crit simming the best hmmm
still cant get the DHT neck to drop
or t swift
did i do this right? seems super low increase for 20 ilvls of secondary stats
might wait til i get a better neck and sim it again so i dont waste resources
if you have $10 and you buy two cokes for 10 minutes and burgers, now the first coke only last 2.5 minutes then you spend less to burgers and buy another coke, still $10. The difference transferred to burger difference not money wise
should i be refreshing my envenom at 1 sec
or whenever its available to go?
i dont know if its stacks with the existing dot\
as late as possible unless you are in KB window most of the time, if you are starved after each envenom you would most likely want to pool to like 70% to get more consistant chains
watch whispyrs vid on pooling
if you have $20 and you buy four cokes for 20 minutes and burgers, now the first two coke only last 5 minutes then you spend less to burgers and buy another two coke, still $20. The difference transferred to burger difference not money wise
it isn't enchanted so yeh
ah shit
I got u
rookie mistake heheh
i was simming with no socket because my current one doesent
just getting confused looking at all the BiS lists running mastery and crit, i guess the answer really just is sim yourself...
but should be much higher
yeah that's cause bis is a braindead concept
ok yea yours is alot more accurate
Whispyr what’s your sim at friend?
no clue
8mil dps
haven't simmed myself in like 2 weeks maybe
did a droptimizer when we got to smolderon
then I got the things
and that was it
Got it. Is confidence high on the robot?
idk what that means
margin of error is always 0.05%
you can see the confidence interval in the full html output
I have a buff called Kalimdors tenacity. Is this from the igira dagger?
Mf feelcrafting
nah I just don't have anything to sim lmao
didnt you get ashes
prob have wrong gems and enchants everywhere now!
dozens of dps I'm losing out on while we die to fire beams for 3 hours

have you tried not dying to fire beams?
Crying pissing shitting vomiting and cumming knowing my goat isn’t maximized to the 0.00001% dps
Fraud tbh
I'm actually quite happy with how I'm playing on prog in general this tier
I'm feeling good until our kill and I die and my parse is awful
always
Is there an optimal amount of Crit/Mastery we should be going for?? Or just as much as possible??
Or is it a "sim it" scenario?
Sim
Yep
Stats are variable
At some point you’ll see vers gems and enchants be recommended by your sim
And that’s normal
love tindral prison
I actually have no clue lmao these numbers mean nothing to me
it's actually a decent fight imo, it's just a bit too much at once
if the mechanics weren't so crazy back to back to back it'd be such a banger
its fun and keeps you on your toes, but who knows how I'm gonna feel about it in 200-400+ pulls more
hey guys quick question. I've never played rogue in my life but always was very intrigued by assassination. I'm not the best wow player by any means. Do u guys think it's worth a shot to pick it up? i've been tempted for a long time but i am scared it's too difficult for me. thanks 😉
Im having some trouble with Sim Tool...
I select Gems, but it's not including them. It worked before...I might have clicked something by mistake. Anyone knows?
do you have replace gems and enchants ticked
Nope! Now I do, thanks again ❤️
depends what you mean by "worth a shot", its about as hard as any other class would be. Nothing wrong with trying it
i'm currently maining demo lock , feels like it will be alot harder than that 😄
different people struggle with different things
I wouldn't be able to play demo lock but I can play assa blindfolded
it's just practice at the end of the day
Sin is the easiest of the 3.
So it's okay to go into it as 1st time, but if you're gonna focus on M+, then start as Outlaw.
i've always enjoyed raiding more tbh
Yeah then Sin/Sub is perfect for you.
allright, i'll try it out, thanks! 🙂
!fuu
Rogue Spreadsheet - Light Version / Dark Version
does vanish etc remove the stinging swarm in BRH
He will recast it
But if hes casting it right as hes about to go into the intermission and you vanish he will do his intermission instead, so on some very specific ones you can use it well
man i don't understand some people
ok for reference, to all the people in here who actually do hard content, what are considered high enough keys for racials to matter?
if its on u does it die and recast?
Hi all, I'm running swords in SoD. Saw a guide that said envenom is better than eviscerate for PVE. I haven't played for a long time - any tips? I'm using saber slash and slice and dice etc
sorry I'm in the wrong channel, my bad, season of discovery 😄
probably like 30
it's real crazy high
ok just making sure i'm not crazy
cause i just got roasted then kicked for playing worgen on sin rogue in a 14
no worries! Dunno how I managed to not realise I wasn't in the classic discussion channel
+14 is 10.1 alt territory
i mean i don't plan on doing stuff beyond maybe 22 to be honest. i like challenging myself but there comes a point where it's more like a job than having fun
a 0.2% dps in racial difference or being able to cleanse an extra debuff every 2 minutes
is actually not doing anything for you in a +14
but getting told my racial is bad in a 14 and then being removed for not playing optimally is just......... like wtf man
yeh
the classic "+9 need aug" party
they see it in MDI or hear about top meta from some streamer
and the streamer goes "yeah have to play dwarf to live this thing in my key"
i was under the impression that meta comps don't become required till you start doing 24+
and then they go "oh dwarf is the only race"
probably higher than that
more like 28-29+
i don't do high keys so i don't know
did you ever play league?
but i DO do low keys enough to know it really shouldn't be a problem
worse
i still play league
meta doesn't actually exist in league till you hit diamond, i know this feeling well
if yes, m+ in the +7to +20range and heroic raiding/very low mythic raiding is basicaly the league silver/low gold player base
i just had vain hopes that wow community would have higher standards for being stupid
it does
even i nchallenger
just not until you're actually top 10% players
ppl still playing kaisa top and ivern sup
diamond is where meta starts
and having 1k lp XD
Would you consider this a meta comp
some people argue plat is where it starts but plat players are silver players who just got really lucky
Or the BM hunter thats done a 31
it starts to matter imo but good players can still play whatever ofc
not pictured here. the 30 keys they bricked yesterday
running no aug
whats your elo ?
its just
low brain people cant do content cus they do 0dmg by playing like absolute garbage, stand in fire all the time and dont use cc->they seek out something too blame why that happens, and looking at some low effort shity tier list is easy, so they just screech what they say
if you go HIGHER, people care less
yes because it's jpc and when he plays the game I write it down like a modern day religious scripture
it's like sapp and kush
I saw them time a fall despite wiping on the last phase of the last boss once 
until you go giga high where it matters again, but if you go that high, you would Probs just do it anyway
They literally just did the boss again and still had 30s left
Hi kann wer helfen?
nein
i haven't played ranked in a VERY long time. last i did was season 5 and i had gotten into gold 4. played a couple games in that elo but realized the toxic environment of ranked was too much for me to care about then stopped
my life has been infinitely improved by dropping ranked games
ich mein ja, leute koennen schon helfen
aber nicht auf deutsch
server is english sprachig

Kush played a non-dust build once so he could use vanish defensively, suddenly #subtlety is full of people implying its the new hidden op build
i don't speak brautwurst
yes i spelled that wrong on purpose
we had that here too
I had to show proof that dance -> kb was better
like
15 times
and people still didn't believe me
Was it some zero cook
no
its the sub version of "somone player with/without CT(changes weekly), IS THAT THE NEW META????"
the echo rogues were using dance last 6 seconds of KB for master assassin
Oh ye that one
can't wait for whispyr to do something on a whim for a week because he feels more comfortable with a different talent and then someone sees him take it and tells everyone it's the new meta for sin
and I'm like yeh that's wrong
and people go "okay but why they do it then"

idk man
ask them lmao
Same thing with people doing 3x dances in their opener rn as sub
I don't play at a level where people care what I play
As well as 2x on-uses
they dont do that cus whisp doesnt give a fuck about m+ and doesnt push, so he doesnt show up on some shity leaderboards->low brain people dont act as if everything he does is some new meta shit
Ive double checked both of them like 3 times because "surely i missed something, so many people are doing it"
But nah
and when I do play something else and people ask why I play something else I make sure to go "because I felt like it"
and not "because it's better"
hey I do that
a lot of ppl on wc logs have double on use i always thought it was good
on tindral 
do you play pvp any? i've been interested for a VERY long time but i'm intimidated by it
nah
Need help, gs 440 and 60 k dps
pvp is a shit show
Its good for smolderon, and arguably good for padding on certain adds (like popping it on gnarlroot adds), but on a singletarget type fight like fyrakk or tindral for actual boss dps? Nah
Every season there's an EU rogue that gets to the top of the ladder as assassination and gives me and my brother hope and then I get to like 1700 and give up
is that m+ as assa or just because you play m+ and realise that its a shit mode?
Ye and then theres bosses like tindral where its alright but communicating that efficiently is just.....cursed 
!up
okok and by triple dance being bad you mean chaining 3 ? you should always wait for symbols ?
For some reason i got tricked into playing another weekly +18 today and played assa, once again it was horrid because every use of KB is cut in half because the mob is dead
Even when sass was shit in m+, I was playing sass in m+
i have no idea how you play sub outside of smoldy tbh
like
the usage of vanish there seema most logical for me in general
but also
fuck dust sub lmao
idc about the spec with that shit ability anyway
Well ye the way the spec is right now you pretty much need to learn it on a fight-by-fight basis, which is kinda odd
And then you get more raid dps and the timings change 
we love that
Sending rn
you've changed
says who
You ain’t getting them from me 
what about peet pics (from stu)
its like sheck wes always said
I got hoes, calling

I can send you some consolation feet pics quake
in the words of jake yesterday in ot: "you all become more submissive every day"
in the other words from ot yesterday: I'm starting an onlyfans
My gf gets the close up's if I got my phone that close to stu it's for sure getting bit
@latent vale too 
I thought my lower half was my better half
so
true, facts
We are?
I was waiting :(
just me
the discord server im using with my friends started a "art stuff tryan sends when he is bored" channel a couple days ago 
I'll fly out there and fist fight him
is it typical with the arterial M+ build to be super bursty at the beginning of boss pulls and then just fall off?
maybe im just inexpericed with energy pooling but tyran bosses feel icky with this build
I think that's pretty typical with just assassination as a whole
burst specs as a whole
yeh, if you are only getting off one set of cooldowns
then that's your damage
pooling properly only can do so much
that's something i still need to learn, onlyu just getting back into sin now since guild just got aotc last night
yeh, it's important but it's not gonna really do much about how you're feeling
damage during cds, not a lot of damage outside of cds is just the spec
thankfully most rogue cds are pretty low
Why's that wrong though? Please explain
sure, so when damage lower than high damage -> bad. because number up good
and when dance last 6s
number down
and number down bad
cause damage lower
hope that helps
Whispyr, Do you think the sin nerfs were justified?
It seems like sin is back to wher it was before. Hardly played
yes
The only suspicious part about those nerfs where assa got 3% was this:

Sheeeesh, we're you expecting the other specs to perform better?
Trying to understand sin's dmg profile and why it even exists if the other specs do it better
Nan?
the problem is more like
they ONLY touched assa
which is a bit weird
but like, sub/outlaw (espacialy sub) will get a hit aswell soon, so 
I feel like sub won't be touched because the playstyle is more challenging to obtain good results
?
first of all "sub so hard omg" is 1 of the biggedt circlejerks in this game
even more so when people did it during times when sub was legit a braindead spec
and "X is "hard" so it cant be nerfed for Overperformance!!!" is 1 of the most stupid takes possible
the only hardest part about sub is openening lorrgs to copy timings of someone that has a similar kill time and putting the timings into perso note
it's just a big bursty dot spec that has a lot of execute value
what's confusing about it
it's very good at passive cleave, and very good at bursting if its allowed to ramp
the only thing that makes assassination "bad" is that subtlety is arguably the best spec in the game right now
that's not assassination being bad, that's just sub being really strong
when secret tech does like 20000billion dmg too everything, yeha
by the same logic you could wonder why any spec would ever exist
why do we exist
oh, beast mastery is doing more than survival
why does survival exist
cause the spec is fun and it does what it needs to do man idk
being able to pull statistics from logs might be the worst thing that's ever happened to the meta
cause now assassination is a "below average spec"
but if you take a minute to look, all of these specs are within 5%
and it's like
are we really gonna argue over that
yeh, the bar is longer
but get real
dead spec gib back my 3% 
and even then
you can open up a log
and be like
oh fryakk p3
very hard
who's doing the most damage during fyrakk p3
after getting nerfed twice?
the sin rogue
can't be that bad then ,can it
what loa should i go with as zandalari?
are we able to do anything to with soul thorns similar to the way we can pre immune chrono faded? or just rotate defensives early and
?
Run out before doing the boss and swap to pvp trinket 
just bring a mage and pray it goes on them every single time
How do i do AD on a 24
can you elaborate on that question a little more?
Attack, kill stuff, time dungeon

Get to yazma with 9:45 left and we wipe 3 times and disband????
idk lol that boss is stupid
Make sure your ranged aren't in BFN
oh yeah that's the meta for AD. just need to spin the wheel enough times to get a group that doesn't like spiders
where do you send Ashes in your CD window on Tswift?
macro it to kingsbane
ty ty whispyr
they were but soulrend was 1 shotting our healer
he probably need gear
Was it just soulrend or soulrend + wracking pain?
a little of both
1st attempt was just soulrend 3rd attempt he was 90% from WP and died to soulrend
we were all in call except the bm hunter in narnia who was toxic at the end anyways
This is a real problem with dungeon design and dot specs. Last season was real bad about it with both Brackenhide and Vortex Pinnacle having totems you need to kill fast or group wipes.
Soulbound Goliath is just the newest version of that.
I think it's an aug issue more than dungeon issue. if we could even out the damage profile with other dps it's kinda chillin, but with aug being more desired as key level goes up the value of the nuke feels more contextual
Having your damage tied to a long duration dot is inherently a weakness compared to doing all that damage in 1 second. There needs to be reasons to make that playstyle desirable if they are both going to parse the same overall.
Sure if you are just fighting one target for 3-5 minutes it doesnt matter
but as soon as you throw an add into the mix the dot class is at a huge disadvantage.
That's what sudden demise is for fyi
Here's a totem you have to kill it in 6 seconds or the group wipes. Great all my damage happens over 18 seconds
guess we wipe
People talking like we don't have a way to instantly bleed out targets
Yalnu's add ain't lookin twice at sudden demise
Yalnus add also lasts long enough for you to dmg it
Just not an aug enjoyer this season, on-demand damage seems too valuable and it's a sore spot
Aug dmg is bad but living is good
That's why high keys have an aug
You can take longer to kill if everyone has 20% more dr
I know... I'm just saying aug being more relevant makes our damage profile more niche
I feel powerful in most situations but those few I don't, I really don't xD
is there some trick to getting back into stealth other than vanishing when the tank just endlessly chain pulls 2-3 mobs at a time
I asked the tank to do bigger single pulls so I could stealth between them, and they told me to play a better spec 😐
Can dance
the correct response from the tank should've been "restealths for you aren't important enough to change my chaining, and chaining is better for your dps"
so what's the best way to keep damage up without getting to restealth often
you rupture a new target for caustic, maintain a rupture/garrote or two for energy
and then dance comes back up
and you're good to go
it's a 1 min cooldown
so basically just rely on dance
Use your CDs more aggressively. 99% of the time I look at key dps and it sucks. People just hold CDs forever
Use it all.
Obviously don’t blow dm on a dinker pack right before the boss
But just ABCD
alright
Better to fire and at least get some value than to never fire and lose out on casts because of it
fair enough
But what if I'm holding them all just for you.
You’re gonna keep holding them homie. I’m sorry 

Race change to Nelf for Meld to stealth more to spread bleeds 
Also I tend to not always hold vanish for deathmark in keys. I’m already spreading DoTs with SD in my DM window so I sometimes use Vanish if I think the chain pull could benefit greatly from me respreading bleeds
if you have pulls synced with your cds its better but if not idk
Vanish in m+ is basically exclusively for bleed spreading
Outside of bosses I wouldn’t even consider using it for kingsbane crits
agree
but what if you dont crit
okay we just crit then
(numbers i just made up)
y i recommend
playing pirate for 2 days and i have tied my highest tyrannical rise that i had on assas

Fake fan
Rise sucks
i got 3400 on assas
did you crit
I always crit
if you don't crit how do you damage?
Rise gotta be my least favorite dungeon this season
Me with sub on tindral except it took 1 pull
just crit big
Returning to ur roots (sub OTP)
also on the 25 rise. I fought the last boss for 2 minutes with just me and vdh
pirate is stupid
I get it, cause sub is insano damage on roots
Amen
Couldnt find one
I finally got branch!!! I took the last recommendations I got and it just so happened I to fall on volcoross kill. Now that I have branch, and the boss is ST how did I do purely on rotation? Do I have mechanical issues in my rotation?

@spice spire
Stop casting tea at the start of your kbs
Otherwise looks okay
Pooling could’ve been a bit better
Got some ambush cp overcap which is weird
Even with improved ambush that shouldn’t happen
I mainly cast tea to get the energy for env before my window
is that wrong
I try not to do it if I only have one in the bank
You always tea the last 6 seconds of kingsbane
Which makes tea at the start pointless
Using tea charges purely to chain is fine too
But using tea at the start of kingsbane purposefully is just never correct
I don't purposefully time my tea for the start of kb, if I don't have energy for envenom I will pop one to make sure I have buff. Is this fine?
Lowkey I don’t believe you cause this is 1 min and 3 min on the kill, and you did the same thing on the 3 min on the wipe as well
So it’s getting pretty difficult for me to believe that you’re not doing it on purpose
When 3/4 of your non-DM’d kingsbanes have a tea slapped on the front
And with basically identical timing
That’s pretty wild

Either you’re the most consistent rogue I’ve ever seen in my life and happen to starve on energy to the point of struggling to chain at precisely 1 and 3 minutes in on every pull
Or you’re putting them there on purpose
You're right. I came here to lie to you

You say one thing but do another idk what to tell you
Those teas are better used to maintain the chain, and since you’re using a charge at the end of kb anyway, it’s not an efficient usage of tea double up
he's so magnificent
hey guys, is it worth crafting a dagger at all? i only have a 437 and raidbots says it would be an 8k dps increase for a new dagger lol
During kingsbane windows, what are my builders in aoe/st?
if you can’t farm a dagger then craft one. you can make what 5 items now?
oh im not sure sorry, i havent been on much lately
huh?
lol ur good mate, i misread what u said before 🙂
What is the max duration of slice and dice if you have cut to the chase ?
Eternal I guess?
Around 54s
U sure ? so it can go up to like 20 minutes ?
Yep, just don't let it fall

Throw a turnip between keys
Have any of you read cut to the chase?
mate, people ask here if they should use amp poison after skilling amp poison
why are you suprised about ANYTHING

Yeah thats why im confused
i just wanted to know whats the max duration of slice if you spam envenoms
and is there a limit of it
here. cut to the chase 5cp max + pandemic = 54s
if you want 20 min snd go outlaw and get lucky with rtb procs
Ok nice, thank you
!fuu
Rogue Spreadsheet - Light Version / Dark Version
not a thing anymore

i was expecting someone to come correct me that its aKhTualLy 55 seconds 🤓
@spice spire im back to SnD hate 
sorta a thing still with underhanded upperhanded
ye ik
its not "2hours SnD timer xd"
and instead its "it just doesnt run out by default"
showing us once again that SnD is a ability that has no place in the game
talking about this made me curious
and i checked logs to see how much i cast it in a night of heroic raid
outside of prepull, i only refresh it once on nymue, once on fyrakk, and twice on tindral (cause flying)
outlaw lol
oh ok sry
fyrakk is just long enough of a fight probably, and it was probably just rng on nymue
is there a way i can make details not reset whenever stealthing on a target dummy?
reset overall and use Dynamic Overall
👍
subtlty in m+ does not even play premed
so if you want to channel your inner snd hate
just play a key of subtelty
damn i was just thinking about sub too. i was like "they only get 10s here and there" but wow
haha fair
i don't think most of them are bad
just a lot of added complexity for the sake of it
i mean, that is bad
i get why people take elusiveness in most keys but i dont see mechanics that need it in thone/rise/waycrest manor 
yet people still take it
whats the 1shot feint doesnt work on
i mean
you dont need CD either this m+ patch
and elusivness also makes evasion a button you actually press
you never "need" CD its just nice to have
which is really good for things like the golem in waycrest
golem?
his only aoe is feintable
and you cant predict soul thorns
unless people pre feint literally every cast
which is a possibility
its litearlly about the thorn itself mate lol, just use evasion and when iot hits you, its fine
no sane human does rise
chain lightning from first boss?
isnt that already feintable 
idk havent needed to so far but only did 26
if you position correct it wont double tap u
like, idk
this patch in shit+ just feels less "some random shit would have 1 tapped me without CD"
and instead all dungeons have 1-2 bosses that do very interactive "targeted ability/group dmg that does 140% of your max hp, survive it"
pinnacle of encounter desing, wdym
use bl and rotate trought deffensives
cus you dont know WHO gets hits
and each bolt is a 1hit kill

Hating is free
5 am in a Sunday?
we didnt just go back to legion dungeons
also too legion m+ desing
survive 1hits
thats it
fun
It was 11 am in my time
Where is the assa rogue?
i remember playing bfa and hoping they give us snd next xpac, then was so happy when they announced it
